The Compost is your go-to source for the latest environmental news impacting Southern California. Subscribe and never miss out on our weekly newsletter. In this edition, we explore three controversial solutions to address climate change. Firstly, grazing cattle on natural vegetation with limited time in each area rather than factory-farmed cattle; this method replicates the ecological benefits provided by herds of buffalo and elk and helps to prevent wildfires and soil erosion. Secondly, Governor Gavin Newsom plans to streamline the California Environmental Quality Act, which creates barriers for housing and infrastructure projects, while environmental groups argue that it has blocked projects that would have worsened pollution and affected vulnerable residents. Lastly, Senate Bill 252 proposes for California’s two largest public pension funds to divest from fossil fuel companies, limiting their resources to build new projects or push legislation. While these solutions are still being discussed, we provide other environmental news and updates on electric vehicles, wolverine sightings, and the new Engineering+Environment Institute at UC Irvine.
